[Quickfix-developers] How to deal with trailing spaces in Fix Price field

[Quek T. W. <qt...@ya...>]

 Hi ,
  
    i am getting execution reports from a Fix engine where tag 44 (Price)
  has trailing spaces ( eg :  44=10.58    ^A48=HOKU.O^A54=2^).
  
  If i turn on validation in QuickFix,  this execution report will be rejected
  with error "Incorrect data format ...".    Therefore i have to turn off
  validation to be able to receive the execution report.   However, there
  are other messages such as the SecurityDefinition where i need to 
  turn on validation to process the repeating groups.   
  
  
  Is there a workaround for the trailing spaces problem ?
  thanks,
  
   Tai Wee

That macro isn't strictly necessary, but does quiet a lot of compiler
warnings about POSIX functions which MS now considers to be deprecated.
This is the biggest headache everyone seems to run into with this new
compiler.

The internal implementation of the UTC* classes was changed after the last
release and so the patches you submitted for struct tm/time_t related
manipulations are no longer necessary with the latest code in CVS.

I don't know if it's stable and faster yet, I'll try the new version Monday=
.


Everything seems stable, and the code passes all regression tests.

Hi,
    I am unable to build libquickfix_jni.so on Linux.Can any one tell me
this step wise.I have Java intalled in it,I have gcc version 3.2.3 20030502

[Quickfix-developers] Visual Studio 2005 (VC8) compilation

[Alexey Z. <ale...@gm...>]

Hello,

I compiled one of my quickfix projects with the new Microsoft compiler 
(VC8) today.
So, as usual, M$ has its own way.

To compile quickfix you need to add a define into the project: 
_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE.
Plus there is an issue with time_t structure which is 64 bit now (even 
if you compile on a 32 machine).
I added two fixes in QUICKFIX/src/C++/FieldTypes.h to solve it:

inline long operator-( const UtcTimeStamp& lhs, const UtcTimeStamp& rhs )
{
  tm l_copy = lhs; tm r_copy = rhs;
  time_t l_time = mktime( &l_copy );
  time_t r_time = mktime( &r_copy );
  return *(long)*(l_time - r_time);
}

inline long operator-( const UtcDate& lhs, const UtcDate& rhs )
{
  tm l_copy = lhs; tm r_copy = rhs;
  time_t l_time = mktime( &l_copy );
  time_t r_time = mktime( &r_copy );
  return *(long)*(( l_time - r_time ) / UTC_DAY);
}

I don't know if it's stable and faster yet, I'll try the new version Monday.

[Quickfix-developers] Memory leaks for Initiator

[Quek T. W. <qt...@ya...>]

 Hi,
    
    i am currently porting and testing a production quickfix app  from Solaris to AIX 5.2.  The version of quickfix used is 1.10.2  and compiler is VisualAge C++ 6.0
  
    My tests consists of : 
  
     1)  Fix client ( SocketInitiator )
          a)  continuously sends Fix42::NewOrderSingle every second
          b)  receives the execution reports.  Prints out the message
         and does no further processing.
  
     2)  Fix server (SocketAcceptor) 
         -  accepts the fix messages from the client and returns
         execution report.
  
    What i observed is that the Fix client memory usage goes up and
  eventually it will crash.   The Fix server is stable and there is no
  memory leak.
  
  I read a recent post here on "ThreadedSocketConnection: fix for memory  growth under heavy load".    Will the use of the  SocketInitiator class also result
  in some sort of memory leak ?   Should i switch to the ThreadedSocketInitiator
  instead ?
  
  
  thanks,

RE: [Quickfix-developers] QuickFix/J : Exception on disconnection

[Shepheard, T. (London) <Tob...@ml...>]

You might want to try getting the latest version from CVS, as there are
some changes to the initiator/acceptor code since the beta 1.0.0
release. I don't know if it solves that particular problem, but there
were certainly a number of issues that have since been fixed and this
might be one of them.

[Quickfix-developers] Error in Messages.h in version 1.10.2

[Ferran C. <fer...@vi...>]

Hi,

I have just download the 1.10.2 version.

When I try to compile my application that includes "quickfix/Messages.h" 
I get an error.

The content of Messages.h is:

#ifndef FIX_MESSAGES_H
#define FIX_MESSAGES_H

#include "fix40/Messages.h"
#include "fix41/Messages.h"
#include "fix42/Messages.h"
#include "fix43/Messages.h"
#include "fix44/Messages.h"

#endif //FIX_MESSAGES_H

The error :

'fix40/Messages.h': No such file or directory

I suppose it must be "fix40/Message.h"  (without 's'). Is it?

I add this to the bug tracker.

Regards,
    Ferran Casarramona

Rather than overload based on a bool (or adding a bool with a default) 
I'd much rather see:

     bool getOptionalField(FieldBase& field);

This makes it much more obvious (to me anyway) when to use this method:  
If the field is optional then it's not an exception for it to be missing.

That being said, I really like the idea, 'cause I'm certainly tired of 
typing:

   if(message.isSetField(filbert))
  {
       message.getField(filbert);
       etc
   }

Agreed, these don't make a whole lot of sense.

I don't think this particular interface would work in C++ (we're dealing
with either FIX::FieldBase or std::string objects and there is no "null").
It would be possible to provide some additional getField/setField overloads
in FieldMap that would do what you want though:

namespace FIX {

struct nothrow {};

class FieldMap {
...
bool getField (FieldBase& field, nothrow) // doesn't throw; returns true is
hasField (field)
bool getField (int field, std::string&) // doesn't throw, returns true if
hasField (field)

I can't really see the value in them, but these could also be added:

bool setField (const FieldBase&, nothrow) // doesn't throw (and has no
effect) if value is empty
bool setField (int field, const std::string& value, nothrow) // same as
above

If people really want these interfaces they'd be very simple to add.

1.15.2.2 and merged into the main branch for 1.18 but I didn't spot it.=20

However... there is still a problem. This is because of the
isTimeForReconnect() check which is part of the overall if(...)
statement - if it's not time for a reconnect yet then it still goes on
to process AbstractSocketInitiator.this.onTimerEvent(quickfixSession) as
before, regardless of whether there's a connection or not. So the fix
below is still required, but the explanation was slightly flawed.

Regards,
Toby

First of all, thanks Brad for the session workaround - worked a treat :)

On the other issue, with the re-attempting connections...I got round to
testing this myself and the problem is from the onTimer event. There's
actually a fix to this already posted in bugzilla, see
http://www.quickfixengine.org/bugtracker/bug.php?op=3Dshow&bugid=3D120&po=
s=3D5
and in particular, the last part of Jeff's code. It'd be nice to get
this added to CVS if nobody sees any problems with it; whilst the bug
status says fixed, the last part doesn't seem to have made it in.

For reference, here's the extract:

quickfix.netty.AbstractSocketInitiator.SessionConnection.onTimerEvent()
{
	if (!nettySession.isConnected() && quickfixSession.isEnabled()
&& isTimeForReconnect()
	&& quickfixSession.isSessionTime()) {
		nettySession =3D (Session) nettySessions
			.get((nettySessions.indexOf(nettySession) + 1) %
nettySessions.size());
		lastReconnectAttemptTime =3D System.currentTimeMillis();
		nettySession.start();

	}
	// Delegate timer event to base class to it can hand off the
event
	// to the appropriate thread

	//Added if statement, so higher layer events
	//Are not processed unless the connection is made.
	if( nettySession.isConnected() )
=09
AbstractSocketInitiator.this.onTimerEvent(quickfixSession);
	}
}

What was happening before is that the call to=20

AbstractSocketInitiator.this.onTimerEvent(quickfixSession);

will eventually call quickfixSession.next(), which then sees its not
logged on, calls the generateLogon() method which sets logonSent to true
(regardless of what actually happens). Of course the generateLogon()
call then fails to send the rawLogon as its not connected. After this
point it *thinks* its sent the logon method so will never retry it.

It would perhaps be also worth checking the return status of sendRaw in
Session.generateLogon() - if this returns false then it could skip the
call to state.setLogonSent(true). (@ Lines 1349-1350)

Any comments from Oren or Steve & co welcomed!

I've actually run into a different issue with the initiator.  It doesn't
seem to logon properly after a failed connection attempt.  Reproducing
is fairly simple with Banzai and Order Matcher:

1. Start Banzai

It gets a connection refused and periodically retries the connection as
expected.

2. Start Order Matcher

Banzai then logs this:
<20051113-03:56:49, FIX.4.2:BANZAI->EXEC, event> (connection
established: net.gleamynode.netty2.Session@afae4a)

So it connects, but it doesn't seem to send a logon, and the order
matcher logs nothing.  The session doesn't show up in Banzai's drop down
list of sessions.

If I then restart Banzai it connects properly.=20

Re: [Quickfix-developers] catch getField business rejects

[Reiner N. <rei...@ma...>]

Hi there,

it would be wounderfull to use simple Java bean approach.
Having get and set method without throwing an exception but able to manage 
null values. So a setFieldXXX (null) should suppress submitting the value in 
the FIX message where getFieldXXX() for an unset value should return null.

Cheers
Reiner

RE: [Quickfix-developers] Building Quickfix on windows

[Chris A. <chr...@be...>]

A very good question, I should have answered it in my first post.  We
want to try and find a way to build the DLL without a dependency on an
external C runtime DLL.  We are going to distribute our application
through WebStart, and getting the application to run on machines that do
not already have the requisite C runtime DLL's is giving us a lot of
problems.  To get around the problem all together, we wanted to build
quickfix_jni.dll with the runtime staticly linked in.
=20
Thanks for suggesting Visual Studio Express C++, I wasn't aware of it.
I'll take a look.

Re: [Quickfix-developers] catch getField business rejects

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

Yeah.  The fromApp method normally propogates the FieldNotFound error, 
which the session catches and send a reject indicating the conditionally 
required field is missing.  If you want to handle this yourself, you 
would wrap the implementation of your method in a try/catch block and 
trap the exception.  You can then handle it yourself, and rethrow if you 
would like the session to also send its normal reject.

[Quickfix-developers] catch getField business rejects

[John G. <joh...@wa...>]

Hi there,

The more different Fix engines I connect to, the more I see that no one 
cares about conditionnaly required fields. So very often, I use a 
getField() method that fails and sends a Business Reject. The counterparty 
then complains about this (well of course, they don't send the correct 
data so it's only logical they should complain when they are told they 
don't). Anyway, I'd rather not have to always use the 
if(isSetField(...)){getField()...} construct when I *know* the message is 
supposed to have the tag, but at the same time, manage the error myself. 

What would be the central point for catching which exception to do that ? 
The fromApp() method catching FIX::FieldNotFound ?

TIA

When you deploy, are you doing so with the debug or release build?  
Also, have you compiled in support for MySQL?

[Quickfix-developers] Deployment problem - quickfix_net, or of its dependencies, was not found

[<hak...@gm...>]

Hello,

I'm developing a .NET application using QuickFix.
Everything works just fine on my developing machine (Windows XP Pro) with
the QuickFix 1.10.2 source installed.
But I run into problems when I try to deploy it to the server (Windows
Server 2003) with the QuickFix 1.10.2 bin installed.

The application immediately crashes showing a message box:
"Application has generated an exception that could not be handled.

Process id=3D0x130(304), Thread id=3D0x55c(1372)."

The following console message is then showed:

"Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: File or assembly nam=
e
quickfix_net, or one of its dependencies, was not found.
File name: "quickfix_net"
at SecurityCollector.SecurityColl ector._run()
at SecurityCollector.SecurityCollector.Main(String[] args) in
c:\documents and settings\taw2\my documents\visual studio
projects\securitycollector\securitycollector.cs:line 35

[SecurityCollector is the name of the application.
SecurityCollector._run() is the first place in the code where I use
QuickFix-classes.]

The file quickfix_net.dll is placed in the same directory as the applicatio=
n
(D:/data/tmp/SecurityCollector/<file:///D:/data/tmp/SecurityCollector/quick=
fix_net.DLL>)
and the version fits. I even tried to copy mscorelib.dll and
Microsoft.VisualC.dll to the same directory but it still doesn't work.

(A strange thing is that the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration
utility fails to View the Assembly Dependencies for quickfix_net.dll on the
server. "Unfortunately, the .NET Framework Configuration tool cannot show
this list of assembly dependencies for this application due to an error
during the generation of the list."
On the developing machine this works however and shows the dependencies:
mscorlib and Microsoft.VisualC.)

I've wasted two days now, trying to make this work.
So I would be very grateful for all help.

Thank you in advance!

[Quickfix-developers] [qfj] Message.clone() not copying groups

[Brad H. <Bra...@gb...>]

Hi,

The Message.clone() method isn't copying groups to the cloned message.
We updated FieldMap.initializeFrom to add the groups from the FieldMap
source and this seems to fix this problem.

    protected void initializeFrom(FieldMap source) {
        fields.clear();
        fields.putAll(source.fields);
        groups.clear();
        groups.putAll(source.groups);
    }

Using CVS head from 11 Nov.

Regards,
Brad.
